Lyrics

(I realize)
All I want
All I need
Always lies just out of reach
I've been coming up empty

(I realize)
Run as fast as I can run
Pushed as hard as anyone
Still, there's nothing for me (oh)

(And I want)
I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am running a race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah

(I realize)
Burning out, strung along
Now my sorrow is my song
My whole world is half hearted

(I realize)
For my pain, I have none
After all is said and done
Now I'm back where I started (oh)

(And I want)
I've gone as far as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am running a race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah

Waaaaooooh
Ooooooooooooh

(And I want)
I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am loosing the race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah
Against myself
